    I had high hopes for it based on the first couple episodes but it went rapidly downhill after that.

    Too many red herrings and dead ends with the plot. Over reliance on the atmospherics and music that makes the whole thing look like a car commercial. The characters motivations are not entirely believable (like the contrived story about Linden unable to postpone her wedding for a couple weeks).

    Don't get me wrong not a bad show just much more average than it seemed to be at first. I think with all the well produced TV series on HBO/ AMC/ etc people are in a rush to declare every new show the greatest thing ever, and in this case it didn't quite hold up.
